Staying involved in our community is something BWL prides itself on and is the first priority in our strategic plan—enrich the community we serve. All summer long, we sponsored events in the Lansing area to give back and help those of all backgrounds. Below is a list of some of the events we sponsored this summer. We’re happy to bring excitement and joy to the Lansing region!
